Humantelligence (HT) won the 2022 HRO Today Association Award for Best In Class HR Technology in the North America region at last week’s HRO Today Association Conference - attended by more than 150 senior HR executives. The award recognized the company’s innovative one-to-one and team collaboration technology for its ease of use, quick implementation, and ability to optimize collaboration on the spot for remote and hybrid teams.
For more than 15 years, the Association has recognized company and individual accomplishments in human resources and leadership in North America, EMEA and APAC. The nomination process offers people, teams, partners and companies the opportunity to share best practices and successes so colleagues, and the industry as a whole, can benefit from their experience. The awards recognize leadership, collaboration, innovation, and hard work, as well as a commitment to people and process improvement. This year’s awards garnered hundreds of submissions, and 71 finalists were named.
Humantelligence delivers personalized communication insights through the tools organizations use every day: Microsoft Teams®, Outlook®, Gmail®, Zoom®, Webex®, Slack® and calendars.
When drafting an email, chatting with a colleague, or joining a meeting, the tool automatically surfaces useful, customized tips for more effective communication and collaboration between team members. With this tool, leaders can create more balanced & diverse teams, reduce friction between team members, and improve productivity. By focusing on collaboration in this way, clients - including BASF, Bank of the West, Honda, AFLAC and others -- have improved team effectiveness and employee engagement while maximizing investment in their current communication technologies.
“It’s important to empower employees with the kind of tools that enable more effective collaboration. We know that when people better understand themselves and others, they can better connect with each other, become more deeply engaged in their work and perform better. At the same time, organizations can increase productivity and improve the employee experience - it’s a win-win for everyone. In our work with hundreds of organizations, we’ve seen our collaboration tool change the way companies think about how people work together, and it’s really gratifying to be recognized by HRO Today for this work,”
